Maximise your garage door’s lifespan: Garador Christchurch


A well-maintained garage door can last up to 20 years longer than one that isn’t maintained, and can ensure you get the most out of your door.

Maintenance of your garage door and opener is critical to ensure its smooth, quiet, and reliable operation.
Aaron and Hilary are the owners of Garador Christchurch and enjoy working closely with their customers. They’ve provided a few tips on how to maintain your door, prolong its lifespan, and uphold its warranty conditions.
1. Look out for small signs of a larger issue. The door shouldn’t be overly noisy, and it should open and close steadily. There also shouldn’t be a delay between pressing the button and the door beginning to move. Some of these minor issues can develop into bigger problems, especially if you’re opening and closing multiple times a day. Minor repairs are covered in Garador’s regular servicing.

2. Choose a professional over DIY. While you should check your door regularly, actual work on it should be carried out by professionals. Aside from the risk of causing damage, the large moving door can cause serious injury if you’re not sure what you’re doing. A professional repairer can diagnose any issues and help you decide what solution is best for you.
3. Adopt a maintenance schedule. You should get maintenance on your garage door 12 months after it’s installed and then every two years thereafter. In between the maintenance, there’s some things you can do to look after the door such as washing it down quarterly with a soft cloth. The parts of your garage door that you should pay particular attention to include the curtain face adjacent to the door head and inside over the top of a roller door.

“We stand behind our service and product at Garador Christchurch and we file the warranties on behalf of our customers as part of our package,” says Hilary. “We also have a system for the servicing requirements, so we will send you reminders when they’re needed. We’re here to make it as easy as possible for you, and to enable your new garage door to run effectively and efficiently for years to come.
